An Ohio Belle Arrested.

CINCINNATI, July 23.-Miss Josie
Holmes, who was exchange clerk of the
late Fidelity bank, and whose visits and
consultations with Harper, late vice -presi-
dent of the bank, caused his removal to
another prison, has been served with a
warrant, chargingsher with aiding and
abetting Harper in his illegal conduct, for
which he is now awaiting trial. Miss
Holmes is tall, handsomely formed hru-
nette, graceful and stylish. She is lady
who would attract attention among the
prettiest, more for the regularity of her
features and her symmetrical develop
1nent, really, than for beauty of complex
ion, although she is strikingly pretty.
Large dark eyes flash forth glances that
are as intelligent as the eyes are attractive.
She is related to some of the best families
in this city, but being of an Independent
disposition has for years managed to look
out for herself

CHARLErToN, S. c., July 28.-At Barn
well Judge Hudson On Saturday sentenced
Axey Cherry, a colored girl, twelve years
old, to be hanged the third Friday ia Sep
tember for the murder of the infant of
Amos Williams at Allendale, Barnwell
county. The child was sent by her mother
to act as a nurse for the Williams baby.
She attended to her duties in SO negligent
manner that she had to be constantly
scolded. After a scolding one day she
was overheard muttering to herself that
she wasn't going to bother with that baby
much more. A few days after concentra-
ted lye was used in securing the floor and
when Mrs. Williams left the room for a
few minutes she told Axey the lye was
poison. On Mrs. Williams return she
was Mortified to find the baby's mouth full
of concentrated lye. The young murder
ess all through her trial seemed to have
no idea of the terrible nature of her deed

BOODLERS ALARMED,
An Ex-Commissoner Gives inside
Facts in the Witness Box, and

CHICAGO, July 25.--Public Interest ia
the big Doodle case is now greater than
ever on account OF the damaging testi-
mony given by ex-Commissioner Lynn.
On Saturday he was subjected to seven
crnss-examinatIon, but in the main his
testimony was mistaken. Members OF
the firm of Gloves & Co. next gave their
testimony in the case of the boodlers.
They testified that Ed. Mcdonald demand
ed commissions from them on an order
and when they appealed to Klehm, the
chairman of the board of commissioners,
he said they had better take care of the
s.boys' or else they would find themselves
at the end of their rope. Commissioner
Lynn on direct examination, testified that
while he was county commissioner, all
dealers who furnished the county of Cook
with supplies we're required to pay the
ring of commissioners a percentage on
each contract awarded, and that Billy Nc
GarigIe, Warden of the county hospital,
was the collector and disburser of the
money so pisd. Lynn was elected from

Settlers Must Clear Out.

WASHINGTON, July 23.-On the 7th in
stant, the secretary of the Interior in the
case of the Fort Boise reservation decided
that land held there in excess of $40 acres
the amount limited by law, was illegal,
and We're subject to entry and settlement.
Since that decision and in til, belief that
the ruling of the secretary in that case ap-
plies to the Fort Ellis military reservation
in Montana. containing $4,000 acres. a
large number of settlers entered upon and
asserted claims of land in the latter ..reser-
walton.
In orderto set matters right, Mr.. Muldrom
of the war department in a letter to the
custodian at Fort Ellis, points out that
the law of 1878 limiting military reserva-
,ions to 640 acres. applied only to the ter
ritory of Oregon as then constituting the
eastern boundary of the Rocky mountains
As Fort Ellis is east Of that boundary it
does not come within the purview of hat
statute. All military reservation settlers
will be notified that their claims have no
legality in law.
